Verse 1
Ab
I was on the outskirts
of a little southern town
Db
Tryin' to reach my destination
before the sun went down
Ab
The old CB was blarin' away on
channel 1- 9
Eb
When there came a little boy's
Verse 2
voice on the radio line
Eb
And he said,
Ab
"Breaker 1- 9, is anyone there?
Come on back,
Db
truckers and talk to Teddy Bear"
Ab
Well, I keyed the mike and said,
Eb
"You got it, Teddy Bear"
Ab
And a little boy's voice came
back on the air
Verse 3
Ab
Appreciate the Breaker
who we got on that end
I told him my handle and
Db
then he began
Though I'm not supposed to
Ab
bother you fellows out there
Mom says, you're busy and
Eb
for me to stay off the air
Verse 4
Eb
But you see I get lonely
Ab
and it helps to talk
'Cause that's about all I can do,
Db
I'm crippled and I can't walk
Ab
I came back and told him to
Eb
fire up that mike
And I'd talk to him as
Ab
long as he'd liked
Verse 5
Db
"This was my dad's radio",
Ab
the little boy said
But I guess it's mine and mom's now,
Db
'cause my daddy's dead
Ab
Dad had a wreck about a month ago
He was tryin' to get home
Eb
in a blindin' snow
Verse 6
Eb
Mom has to work now to
Ab
make ends meet
And I'm not much help with
Db
my two crippled feet
She says not to worry that
Ab
we'll make it alright
Eb
But I hear her cryin' sometimes
Ab
late at night
Verse 7
Ab
You know there's one thing,
I want more than anything else to see
Db
Oh I know you guys are too
Ab
busy to bother with me
Eb
But you see my dad used to take me
for rides when he was home
Ab
But I guess that's all over now
since my daddy's gone
Db
Not one breaker came on
Verse 8
the old CB
Ab
As that little crippled boy talked with me
Eb
Ab
I tried hard to swallow a lump
just wouldn't stay down
As I thought about my boy
back in Greenville Town
Verse 9
Ab
Dad was gonna take mom and
Db
me with him later on this year
Why I remember him sayin' someday
Ab
This old truck will be yours Teddy Bear
Eb
But I know now, I'll never get
a ride on 18- wheeler again
Ab
But this old base'll keep me in touch
with all my trucker friends
Db
Teddy Bear's gonna
Verse 10
Db
back on
out now and leave you alone
Ab
'Cause it's about time for
mom to come home
Eb
But you give me shout when you're
Ab
passin' through
And I'll surely be happy
Eb
Ab
to come back to you
Verse 11
Ab
Well, I came back and I said,
Db
"Before you go 10- 10
What's your home 20 little CB friend?"
Ab
Well, he gave me his address
and I didn't once hesitate
Eb
'Cause this hot load of freight
Ab
would just have to wait
Verse 12
Ab
I turened that truck around on a dime
Db
And headed straight for
Ab
Jackson Street 229
And as I rounded the corner, oh,
Eb
Ab
I got one the heck of a shock
18- wheeler were lined up for three city blocks
Verse 13
Ab
I guess every driver for miles around
had caught Teddy Bear's call
Db
And that little crippled
boy was havin' a ball
Ab
For as fast as one driver
would carry him in
Another would carry him to his
Eb
truck and take off again
Verse 14
Eb
Well, you better believe I took my turn
Ab
Db
rifin' Teddy Bear
Ab
And then carried him back in and
Eb
put him down in his chair
Ab
And buddy if I never live to
see happiness again
I want you to know, I saw it that day
in the face of that little man
Verse 15
Db
We took up a collection for him before
his mama got home
Ab
And each driver said goodbye and
then they were all gone
Eb
He shook my hand with a mile long grin
And said, "So long trucker
Ab
I'll catch you again"
Verse 16
Ab
Db
Well, I hit that Interstate with tears in my eyes
I turned on the radio and I got
Ab
another surprise
Eb
Ab
Breaker 1- 9, came the voice on the air
Eb
Ab
Just one word of thanks
Db
Ab
from mama Teddy Bear
Verse 17
Ab
We wish each and everyone a special
Db
prayer for you
'Cause you just made my little
Ab
boy's dream come true
Eb
I'll sign off now before I start to cry
Ab
May God ride with you
